Come and relax amidst the plants by booking a botanical workshop. Agriculture will be the ideal means to experience a unique immersion in nature!
Urban agriculture is an agricultural practice in cities, as the name suggests, rather than rural. It facilitates food supply in urban environments.
One of the most well-known forms of urban agriculture is undoubtedly permaculture, a model of horticulture and sustainable, self-sufficient agriculture. It originates from natural ecology and tradition.
The objective is to mimic nature by creating a garden that is as minimally transformed as possible, with a preserved ecosystem. Thus, a garden cultivated in permaculture requires less care than a traditional garden, as human interventions are limited.
The agricultural and permaculture workshops offered by Funbooker aim to raise awareness of environmental respect and to promote biodiversity.
You will become familiar with herbalism right in the heart of a big city! During this activity, you will explore the specifics and benefits of the aromatic and medicinal plants presented.
Afterwards, you will harvest herbs in the vegetable gardens to compose a bouquet garni. You will also learn about drying and preparation techniques.
You will begin with a tour of the farm, located on the roof of a building.
Then, the urban farmer who will accompany you will explain the functioning of fertilizers, waste disposal, plant treatment, and farm maintenance.
Finally, depending on the season's schedule, you will become acquainted with working the land by carrying out operations such as weeding, planting, harvesting, or culinary processing.
This agricultural workshop will take place in the countryside. Farmers will explain the basic principle of permaculture. You will learn to sow, plant, and maintain plants, as well as to promote the development of mushrooms.
